For many reasons, governments across the world love to build surprisingly expensive, depressingly inefficient transportation projects. What's been the most wasteful of all?

Now, we do like many transportation projects, even ones that aren't particularly popular. We'd be happy if there were more trains, buses, and subways for Americans to ride so we didn't all have to sit in mind-numbing traffic for hours a day.

However, we do not condone $1 million bus stops, like the one recently completed in Arlington, VA. Federal grant money can be better spent, to say the least.
